Maromokotro
At an elevation of 9,436 feet above sea level, Maromokotro ranked first among the highest mountains in Madagasca. The mountain is found near Bealanana in the Tsaratanana Massif. Maromokotro is also Antsiranana's highest mountain. The peak is found within the Tsaratanana Reserve, a protected area.
Mount Maromokotro is a key supply of water for the surrounding area, as well as a major source of rivers such as the Bermarivo, Mahavavy, and Sambirano. The mountain's summit is occasionally blanketed with snow, which melts away in the summer. Because of its distant location, climbers and tourists do not flock to Mount Maromokotro.
It does, however, include beautiful waterfalls and provides a peaceful environment for those who manage to get there. A French explorer was the first to ascend the mountain in 1936. On its peak, there is a small cairn from which one can have a great view of the island.
